Elliott E

I’m an enthusiastic and adaptable swim instructor with experience teaching 1-1 sessions and group lessons for all ages and abilities, including children, adults, and those with special needs.

For me, swimming isn’t just about perfecting your technique—it’s also an amazing way to improve your health, build strength, and feel great. My goal is to make sure that everyone who steps into the pool leaves feeling more confident, capable, and excited to keep progressing—no matter where you’re starting from.

Whether you’re looking to refine your strokes, overcome fears, or prepare for school swim lessons or a holiday, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Great experience

We have used swimexperts (Elliot) for our 5 year old as he didn’t have any confidence in the water & wasn’t progressing at all in group lessons. Within 8 lessons he was like a different child, confident to swim with his head underwater & without a float. He loves swimming now. We are amazed how much Elliot has managed to achieve in such a short space of time. Amazing value for money, we would recommend to anyone.

Elliott a great swimming teacher

As an adult learner, Elliott was kind, thoughtful and motivating to improve both my breaststroke and front crawl. We worked on my stamina and coordination to improve both strokes over 4 weeks I was with him.

Elliott has been a great swimming teacher for my non verbal, autistic son. He makes every lesson engaging and works well to his abilities. He has taken the time to understand my son's needs and adapt his approach accordingly. Highly recommended.

My son has really started to enjoy his swimming lessons since Elliott has been teaching him. He can be very nervous in the pool and due to his deafness, he sometimes needs things repeating a few times and explaining more than usual but this is handled perfectly. Elliott gets him to do what he needs to but without pressure and in a fun way. There are always smiles and giggles during lessons!

Elliott has been an amazing swim instructor, teaching both of my 4 and 6 year old. They have come on so much since starting the lessons. He is very patience and calm. His lessons are engaging and fun. Both boys enjoy coming each week.

Elliot has been absolutely brilliant with my twins. They have gone from not wanting to get their faces wet to jumping in, in a matter of weeks. Would highly recommend.

As someone who was very nervous about having swimming lessons, I now look forward to them. Elliott is a brilliant swimming teacher who has managed to instill enough confidence in me to enable me to make good progress. Elliotts patience and good humour are appreciated and help to make the lessons enjoyable which is important in making people feel at ease. Thank you Elliott!

Hi, This is Anjali, here... I am delighted to say that Fern, my swim instructor was the most sweet, kind, gentle, patient and truly an amazing coach... I am so lucky to have found her, I commend her work and recommend swim expert to anyone who is a complete beginner, want to learn, or even brush up, I was someone who was especially reluctant but Fern made me feel so comfortable, I cannot put it into words, how much she helped me, I will recommend swim expert and Fern as coach, worth every penny!

We could not be happier with Chester as a swimming teacher for our 5 yr old daughter. She had really helped grow her confidence in the water.

Matthew has been absolutely amazing in helping our 7 year old with his confidence. His swimming has come on incredibly, he's swimming independently and loving it. Swimming is now something he enjoys and wants to do. I couldn't recommend Matthew at SwimExpert enough!

Couldn’t be happier with Chester’s teaching. Both our children have improved so much in such a short time and they really enjoy their lessons. Chester has a great rapport with them. She’s makes it fun, while also being really clear and not giving up until they get the technique just right. Would definitely recommend.
